Famous quotes containing the word girl:

    it’s just that I see love as odd as wearing shoes—
    I never wanted to marry a girl who was like my mother
    And Ingrid Bergman was always impossible
    Gregory Corso (b. 1930)

    I see a girl dragged by the wrists
    Across a dazzling field of snow,
    And there is nothing in me that resists.
    Once it would not be so....
    Philip Larkin (1922–1986)

    If there hadn’t been women we’d still be squatting in a cave eating raw meat, because we made civilization in order to impress our girl friends. And they tolerated it and let us go ahead and play with our toys.
    Orson Welles (1915–1984)
